cdslinvchk(8)
NAME
  cdslinvchk - Checks the CDSL inventory of the base operating system and
  layered applications.

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/sbin/cdslinvchk [log_file_path]

OPTIONS
  log_file_path
      The path name to a location for the log file.  By default this will be
      /var/adm/cdsl_check_list.

DESCRIPTION
  Use the cdslinvchk script to verify the current inventory of Context
  Dependent Symbolic Links (CDSLs) on a running system.	 CDSLs are special
  symbolic links that enable a system to work in a cluster.  If CDSLs are
  accidentally removed, your system will not function correctly in a cluster.
  While this is not a problem for stand-alone systems, you may not be able to
  add the system as a member of a working cluster at some future time.	You
  can run this script at any time or configure it to run at system start-up,
  or as a cron task.

  When you invoke the script, it checks the CDSLs on the running system
  against CDSLs of the installed inventory in /usr/.smdb and the additional
  entries in /var/adm/cdsl_admin.inv, and ensures that each target file
  exists on the system as a properly-constituted CDSL. If the check is
  successful, the following message is displayed and the script terminates:

       Successful CDSL inventory check

  If the script finds inconsistencies in the inventory, warning messages are
  displayed on your terminal and logged to the default log file at
  /var/adm/cdsl_check_list.  You can specify an alternate location for the
  log fill if required.	 The script locates any modified, missing, or
  replaced CDSLs.  Note that the previous copy of the log file is renamed and
  retained for reference and is renamed by appending .old to the filename.

  Refer to the System Administration guide for information on recreating any
  missing or broken CDSLs.  Refer to the hier(5) reference page for an
  inventory of CDSLs.

  MESSAGES

  One or more of the following messages may be displayed and logged to the
  log file:

    ·  Unable to create <pathname> report file -- the script was not able to
       create a log file.  Check the target directory and security.

    ·  Expected CDSL: <cdsl_pathname> -> <pathname>

    ·  CDSL Target has been modified to: <pathname>

    ·  CDSL has been replaced with <pathname>

    ·  CDSL is missing

    ·  Failed CDSL inventory check. See details in <log file>
